Or are they better off to keep on a farm? I kind of want a Duck as a pet and I want to have it in my house waddling around everywhere lol. I can build a small pen for them in my backyard and I have a small pool for them to swim in. I'll have to make the small pen predator proof though since I see a Red Tailed Hawk flying around above my house every so often and Coyotes and Foxes may pick up my Duck's scent. Also I was advised if I ever decide to get a Duck to get a male Mallard Duck are they the best types of Ducks as pets?

Yeah I wouldnt recommend it. They can make a mess of any water source. They need water in order to eat which means more mess. The poop is one of the worst smells. I won't even keep the newly hatched ones indoors anymore. The smell is just unreal. Outdoors they are still messy. Call ducks are pretty small and males are quieter. A female Muscovy is my favorite. Since they aren't a puddle type duck, they are a perching duck, much less mess. Females are friendlier an smaller.
